5 Star and Gold Award Visit England Rating

Sarah Dean • September 15, 2021

Results of the first Visit England Assessment

We were so nervous for the assessment of the cottages because blood, sweat and tears have gone into them, they have been a labour of love for the past four years and this was the pinnacle. We could not be happier with the results receiving a 5 Star Self Catered Visit England Accreditation for both Pasture House and The Stables. The cherry on top was that we were also awarded a Gold Award which recognised the extremely high standard of finish noted throughout. The assessor said that it was the highest rated property he had ever visited!

Here are some snippets of the assessment report...

"The extremely well presented Pasture House and converted Stables have been restored to the highest of standards and the owners should be congratulated. The attention to detail noted throughout is impressive. Sarah is clearly passionate about the property and her continual hard work and investment will maintain the extremely high standards, the 'Wow' factor and ensure guests have an amazing stay."

"Painted decor throughout is in excellent order with very good use of artwork, colourful curtains and coordinated furnishings helping to enhance the appearance and add to the style and feel. More original features noted in The Stables such as exposed brick work and original doorways further enhances. Exposed timber beams in The Stables and impressive log burners throughout help to add character. Excellent quality tiled flooring noted throughout which also helps to add to the quality of the accommodation. New carpets to the stairs and landings in Pasture House are excellent quality. Space is utilised well to maximise comfort with The Stables offering an open plan design and Pasture House having a separate lounge and large kitchen/dining area. Occasional furniture is very well maintained with impressive Chesterfield style sofas presenting excellently. Excellent natural and artificial spot lighting noted, with lamps very well placed. Controllable underfloor heating is responsive."

We hope that you agree with the comments made by Visit England as we cannot wait to welcome you to come and stay!
